Still a nice phone though.

P.s Love the design, when can i get one!

Does the temperature of the heat source determine rate of charge?
Does the phone fully charge within a few hours with the heat provided by a pocket?
Does the symbolism within the phone (i.e. cracked earth, angular style) really matter, or is it a secondary goal?
Will it easily break under pressure or malfunction?
Can you incorporate practical usage such as waterproofing or solar power into the already existing design?
Is heat always readily available to charge the phone?
Will the battery drain quickly?
Can you bring this phone to compete with existing companies such as android or apple?

Are you willing to lose what you have created to a greedy businessman???

All of these questions are viable excuses for a company to refuse to manufacture your design, even Nokia, who you started off with, could deny the concept. If you can manage to find a proper solution to these questions, there is no doubt in my mind that this phone will be a best-seller.
